You're not applying caut or wrecker, Broadside has a 2 sec fuse time and you can just move away from the spam. Why is that you may ask? Beacuse it doesn't. The Broadside + Scuttle spam only seems to work when dredge is in the opposite team. They need to shorten the detonation countdown so players can't just step a little to the left, right or wherever direction to avoid it. It was like Jenos's ult before it was given less cast time. Best option: Make it so people need to press a button to use it. Allies being able to use it could have been fun, but because it instantly teleports without warning, it's basically a dick move to place it near team fights. I wouldn't really change anything with Harpoon.

Harpoon spam is better than Broadside-Reload spam simply because you still need to aim accurately and have LOS of your target. But when paired with Hurl talent, it becomes a better primary fire than the howitzer. They need to improve its travel path to something similar to Pip's. Basically, Pip's projectile track is half a parabola while Dredge's projectile track is a full parabola which makes it harder to hit. Unlike Pip's arching projectile, which fires at the direction you are pointing and descends after a few moments of flight, Dredge's projectile tends to go up when fired and then go into an arch. The problem is that it's hard to land a direct hit with it unless you are in point blank range. His primary fire has decent damage for a blaster. Either they decrease the damage of the reload to around 500-700 or they could remove the reload projectile completely His reload, paired with the current Heave Away card and Scuttle talent makes it so that he can nuke people every 3 seconds. Broadside gives way too many visual clutter and can be spammed like the fucking 'I Love You' virus. Let's talk about his current dominant playstyle.

By now, it's a common fact that nobody likes playing against Dredge and while I can go on with the braindead screaming of 'Dredge OP, Please nerf', I'd rather discuss why he's just a poorly designed champion overall.
